Question

When I download files I can’t open them from my computer because it say the file hasn’t been shared. Where should it be shared?

After an update on my computer I can’t open files in Adobe. I get a sidebars with the file but a message that says it hasn’t been shared

    Hi CherylSC,


    Thank you for reaching out and sorry for the trouble caused.


    As mentioned, you are unable to open the PDFs you download and receive a message indicating that the file has not been shared. Could you please confirm the website or source from which you are downloading these files?

    It would be helpful if you could share a short video demonstrating how you download the files and what happens when you attempt to open them in the desktop application.

    Additionally, please provide the version number of Acrobat and the operating system that you are currently using.

    We look forward to your response.


    Thanks,

    Meenakshi
